Brunswicker Red Onions
Hi friends!
I'm new to the whole fruit/veg/gardening thing, however, I really enjoy it. To start me off I am growing some red onions (Brunswicker) in my back garden, after planting them a couple of weeks ago; they have shot up pretty well, however, some of the stems have bent and snapped in the wind - is this normal? or should I snap them off anyway? Also, how do the reproduce? ie how do i grow more after harvesting them? Kindest Regards, Shaun |

Brunswicker Red Onions
I am surprised that the wind would be responsible, more likely an animal.
However, IMHO the stems are not a problem after all the bulb is the energy store. I would just leave them and if there are broken portions that wither and die off, throw them on the compost heap. -- Baal I smile and go off waving (Amiably) - for that's my way "Shaun Rigby" wrote in message oups.com...
